Wally Walrus has captured his tea - 20 of Tiki Kiwi's friends from the New Zealand zoo, and if Tiki doesn't rescue them all by tea-time they'll be stuffed, served and swallowed at Wally's table. Tiki has to search Wally's domain which is just how you would expect it to be - FAT with danger! Armed only with a bow and arrow, Tiki can accumulate more weapons along the way. Beware of the malicious rabbits, boomerang throwers, deadly frogs, blood-sucking bats and many, many more villainous creatures. — Cassette cover

The NewZealand Story is a 1988 arcade game developed and published by Taito. The player controls Tiki, a sneaker-wearing kiwi who must save his lover Phee Phee and several of his other kiwi chick friends who have been kiwi-napped by a large blue leopard seal. The player has to navigate a scrolling maze-like level, at the end of which they release one of Tiki's kiwi chick friends trapped in a cage.

After the release of the original arcade game in 1988, the game was converted to most of the game consoles and home computers of the time. Most home releases came in 1989, with some arriving later through 1990-1992. The home computer versions were published by Ocean Software, and their home computer versions refer to Wally as a walrus on the packaging; however, the original arcade version specifically mentions him as being a leopard seal during the closing credits.
